The Brass Dragon - Maryland Renaissance Festival

06/10/2026

The Brass Dragon, created by artist David Graham Spurlock, is a highly sought-after artisan shop famous for its custom, intricately detailed "webs" and snoods. A favorite at the Maryland Renaissance Festival, these accessories act as flexible, medieval- and fantasy-inspired hair nets to elegantly hold hair in place.

Because each piece is custom-fitted and handcrafted to match your hair's volume and color, they are sold in person.

How to Shop or Reach The Brass Dragon:

Visit the Festival: The Brass Dragon maintains a booth at the annual Maryland Renaissance Festival in Annapolis, Maryland.

With our recent post about hair snoods, I thought I'd share some photos of a handful of our different designs.

Top of the morning to ya! Have you ever wondered what our Dragonmaster, David Spurlock, does when he's not at the Maryland Renaissance Festival?

Throughout the fall, winter and spring season, he is fully involved in his bagpipe band, the Space Coast Highlanders in Melbourne, Florida. They perform at special events, parades, individual and full band competition. And of course THIS week, they are performing their hearts out for the Saint Patrick's Day celebrations. Here's a link to a video of them parading into a local pub in Florida to perform.

In addition, here are a few photos of your Dragonmaster as the pipe major for the band.
